Shortly after midnight was the second explosion in Malmö within a day.

Now, someone threw a hand grenade at a social welfare office.

– Naturally we examine whether there is a connection, says Nils Norling at Skåne police.

At 00:15 started the alarms of any kind of bang or explosion flow into the Malmö police. At 0:30 pm, police had not yet found smällens origin.

– We have several patrols out in Malmö to locate it says Nils Norling at Skåne police.

He says that there are several people who have heard of him.

– It has been called from almost the entire central Malmö, he said.

Street cordoned

Just before the 01- the time reported that the police set up roadblocks in the area around Hålsjögatan.

– It is something that has exploded outside a building. We see the damage to several windows in nearby buildings, says Norling.

The explosion occurred at the social welfare office on Hålsjögatan and cars nearby damaged. It was heard very clearly according to a witness who lives on the street.

– It sounded like a huge bang, it sounded really loud, say the residents, which fortunately had not been able to sleep yet.

– I felt afraid, and thought immediately of all other blasts that have been here lately.

The Hen has not been on the street, but looking from his window how the police have cordoned off. Several neighbors, however, has been down.

– I think many are a little afraid, because it sounded so loud, said the witness.

Several blasts

Police Malmo investigating previously several attacks with hand grenades in the city. The most recent occurred in Limhamn night of Thursday.

– The past couple of months, it’s about eight or nine, said Lars Performed Tell, CIO at Skåne police, told Aftonbladet earlier on Thursday.

Currently, it is still unknown if the night’s bang unrelated to previous events.

– We examine the course it has to do with each, but we see no risk that it slams elsewhere, says Nils Norling .

Special Investigator

However, in previous cases, the police have appointed a special investigator to examine the connection between the incidents.

– We conclude that there is a target as it is directed against. It is reasonable to believe that this is not about individual events, said Lars Performed Tell earlier.
